Beerman. 330 $a"The Eternal Dissident offers rare insight into one of the most inspiring and controversial Reform rabbis of the twentieth century, Leonard Beerman, renowned both for his eloquent and challenging sermons and for his unrelenting commitment to social action. Beerman was a man of powerful word and action--a probing intellectual and stirring orator, as well as a nationally known opponent of McCarthyism, racial injustice, and Israeli policy in the occupied territories. The shared source of Beerman's thought and activism was the moral imperative of the Hebrew prophets, which he believed bestowed upon the Jewish people the role of engaging in 'eternal dissident.' This volume brings Beerman to life through a selection of his most powerful writings, followed by commentaries from notable scholars, rabbis, and public personalities that speak to the quality and ongoing relevance of Beerman's work. 606 $aSocial action 606 $aJewish leadership$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aReform Judaism$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $a20th century. 610 $aactivism. 610 $achallenging sermons. 610 $acontroversial. 610 $aeloquent. 610 $aeternal dissident. 610 $ahebrew. 610 $aintellectual. 610 $aisraeli policy. 610 $ajewish people. 610 $ajewish. 610 $aleonard beerman. 610 $amccarthyism. 610 $amoral imperative. 610 $anotable scholars. 610 $aoccupied territories. 610 $aorator. 610 $apowerful word and action. 610 $aprophets. 610 $apublic personalities. 610 $arabbis. 610 $aracial injustice. 610 $asocial action. 615 0$aSocial action. 615 0$aJewish leadership$xHistory 615 0$aReform Judaism$xHistory 676 $a296.8/3410973 700 $aBeerman$b Leonard I.$f1921-2014,$01025561 702 $aMyers$b David N. 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910268954303321 996 $aThe Eternal Dissident$92438754 997 $aUNINA
